Paula walked out of the room, seeing a janitor who was on the phone in the elevator. The janitor smiled kindly at Paula as he put his cell phone in his pocket. He also held the elevator door open to allow Paula to use the same elevator.
Paula quickly got into the elevator because she was in a hurry. "Thank you!" said Paula, returning the man's smile with the same friendliness. She then quickly pressed the number fifteen button. However, it turns out that the elevator was heading downwards.
"Oh my gosh!" Paula laughed at her clumsiness. She looked at the janitor and laughed together.
"It is going down," the man said, pointing down with his left finger. He was afraid that Paula wouldn't understand Japanese.
Paula graciously nodded with a smile, indicating that she understood the man's language.
"Do you want to go to the fifteenth floor?" the man asked again. "Strange. People rarely go there."
